Outdoor Kitchen Ideas With Style

Outdoor kitchens are, well, hot. Outdoor kitchen ideas have moved beyond a standalone grill with a small cook space. Popular designer outdoor kitchen features include bars with sinks, grills that rival any indoor cooking range, appliances such as stainless steel refrigerators, cabinets, grill islands and luxurious countertops — putting within reach everything to make a delicious meal (or the perfect beverage) alfresco.

A well-designed outdoor kitchen works together with its indoor counterpart when cooking or entertaining guests and complements a home's architecture and landscaping. Outdoor kitchen appliances and materials should be durable — designed to withstand the elements.

Plan your outdoor cookspace layout with the following outdoor kitchen ideas, which include this space built for entertaining guests in grand style. Homeowners can grill up dinner in the luxe outdoor kitchen and then gather the party around the large dining table nearby.
